Aristotle's ladder of nature, and the Great Chain of Being, were concepts suggesting __________. a) life evolved on other worlds and was later transported to Earth down a celestial ladder
b) the accurate evolutionary view that all species are related, with each providing an evolutionary link (i.e. step in the ladder) to its immediate ancestor
c) the mystical teleological view that all species were created in a fixed order, from least to most perfect
d) life is a painful and purposeless experience of endless steps, but death brings release from the ladder of life

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

c) the mystical teleological view that all species were created in a fixed order, from least to most perfect

Explanation:

The teleological argument states that God created all living things, this belief is also known as intelligent design or creationism. This belief might be considered to be opposed to the mechanism of natural selection proposed by Darwin to understand how species evolve, which can explain the complexity of living things. The creationism was firstly proposed by Socrates in ancient Greece. Subsequently, Plato (who was a student of Socrates) and Aristotle (who was a student of Plato) substantially enhanced the arguments of the intelligent design.

Approximately 99% of the microbes in the intestines are obligate anaerobes. We have plenty of blood vessels that can bring oxygen to the tissues of the intestines. Why would there be obligate anaerobes within these areas? A. The bacteria in the intestines are protected from exposure to the oxygen in the tissues by the lining of the intestines. B. The bacteria consume all the oxygen in the tissue areas brought by the blood vessels, creating an anaerobic environment. C. While the blood vessels supply oxygen to the tissues of the intestines, the inner area where the bacteria reside is NOT supplied with blood/oxygen. Since it's deep within our bodies, there's no chance for oxygen to get into these inner areas of the intestinal tube, creating a highly anaerobic environment. D. The aerobic microbes are outcompeted for nutrients in these areas by the anaerobic microbes.

List two chemicals that you think have low entropy and two that have high entropy. Explain the reason for your choices.

Answers

The Two substance that has low entropy are diamond and graphite while the other two chemical/substance that has high entropy are Noble gases(helium, neon, etc) and oxygen.

Generally, entropy measures the disorder or randomness in a system. High entropy implies randomness or high disorder while low entropy indicates orderliness.High entropy system, more energy is lost to the environment/surroundings.

Examples of chemicals or substances with high and low entropy are listed below

Low entropy

1.Diamond: This is a carbon crystalline substance. The makeup follows a well-structured pattern.  The particles are tightly packed thereby giving them a low entropy value. This means they are well ordered.

2.Graphite: This is another carbon substance but they have higher entropy than diamond but generally possess a low entropy.

High entropy

Generally, gaseous substances possess high entropy, and this includes

1. Nobles gases(helium, argon, Neon, etc); These gases when placed in a closed system they exhibit high entropy. They act disorderly. They move randomly and tend to occupy every space available in the system.

2. Oxygen gas: This is another gaseous substance that exhibits disorderliness when placed in a closed system.  

The arrangement of the particles and cohesive forces holding the individual particles of the substance together play a large role in determining its entropy.

Here are two examples:  

Low entropy: -A carbon crystal structure at a temperature near absolute zero,              

                      -A chunk of ice has low entropy

High entropy:- A box filled with two elements in their gaseous state, both of which are noble gases.

                       - Burning wood illustrates an increase in entropy  heated very          high temperature, with the gas "not very dense".

 The entropy of a chemical system depends on its energy and its multiplicity,  or how many different ways its atoms and molecules can be arranged. By adding new arrangements or energy, you increase entropy.  A diamond, for example, has low entropy because the crystal structure fixes its atoms in place. If you smash the diamond,  entropy increases because the original, single crystal becomes hundreds of tiny pieces that can be rearranged in many ways.

Burning wood illustrates an increase in entropy as The wood starts as a single, solid object.  Fire consumes the wood, releasing energy along with carbon dioxide and water vapor, and leaving a pile of ashes.  The atoms in the vapors and gases vibrate energetically, spreading out in an ever-expanding cloud.  Dissolving salt in water is another example of increasing entropy; the salt begins as fixed crystals,  and the water splits away the sodium and chlorine atoms in the salt into separate ions, moving freely with water molecules.  A chunk of ice has low entropy because its molecules are frozen in place.  Add heat energy and entropy increases. The ice turns to water, and its molecules agitate like popcorn in a popper.

1. What is the equation for the equilibrium constant, Keq, for the following general reaction: aA + bB → cC + dD Define each term in the equation. 2. What is the actual free energy change of the reaction above? Again, define each term in the equation. Express this equation in terms of mass action Q
3. What is the standard free energy change of the reaction above? Again, define each term.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

From the reaction ; aA + bB → cC + dD

1) Keq = equilibrium constant = [A]^a [B]^b / [C]^c [D]^d

where [A] = [B] = [C] = [D] are the concentrations of reactants A, B, C and D respectively.

2) What is the actual free energy change of the reaction above? ;

  • ΔG is the differences between the sum of the free energies of the product and the reactant.
  • Mathematically; ΔG = (cΔGC + dΔGD) - ( aΔGA + bΔGB)
  • ΔG, in terms of reaction quotient ; ΔG = ΔG(standard) + RT lnQ

where R = gas constant and T = temperature.

3) What is the standard free energy change of the reaction above;

  • ΔG(Reaction) = Summation ΔGf(products) - summation ΔGf(reactants)
  • where summation ΔGf = standard free energy of formation
